How It Works

Creators can now select CTS EVENTIM under the “Add link” option before posting a video. They can then search for any event on CTS EVENTIM and select “Add to video” to add the link. Once creators share their video, TikTok users will see a “Get Tickets” button within the video description that directs them to CTS EVENTIM, where they can buy tickets.
